ojtech8291: Pls, who knows how to connect another tv to ds new srt4940? I confirmed it dat it has no rf port. Urgent reply.
If your tv has the component jack you can use that. If not, use the a/v splitter so that you can have 2 outputs from the receiver. undecided

osef:

@ George D, long time brother, may the lord grant u more fruitful days, pls how do i join dstv signal and free to air to a signal booster so that both can be send to the various rooms about five rooms and the sitting rooms, i am suspending my Nile sat search till conclusion is made of the 1M dish.

@osef,
Loop the RF output of the DSTV decoder into the RF input of the FTA reciever. After that connect the RF out of the FTA reciever to the input port of your signal booster. Install a 4-way splitter on the out port of the signal booster and send to each room.
Satellite TV Technology / Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by atoje(m): 5:14am On Aug 25, 2011
have also experienced similar problem in the past, am using 2dishs 1 for W3 the other one is combine dstv & joy. everything is working fine until i use splitter to split the lnb from the w3 so that i can av access to my dstv<dongle>, multi, w3.

what now happen is tht some dstv station like super sport 10 is not showing while others like ss3 80%, hitv 95% etc

another thing that also happen is that the multy completely go red sometin that is 75% b4.

and the w3 is showing perfectly well.

how i solve the problem
i first change the disecq, yet same ! same!!
i change the splitter same! same!!
one i remove the wire i splitted from the disceq everything become normal.

am so surprise because that is not the first time am using spliter as two way.

the problem happened on 4669x11 decoder.  i think these problem really have to be look into.

I Hacked:

@ all about w4 tp 12437H23437 today i change the lnbf and the cable but still red i use 60cm dish and it hit green
with the same receiver and the same tp and i use the old cable and the same lnbf and it hit green other tp is very high up to 93% but why this tp still red?
where do you think the problem is? brodas help me thank you
are u using disecq? and do u split any of the wire on the other dish u are using, if yes u will have to remove it from the splitter b4 putting it in the disecq.

Cardsharing is system where alot of people(slaves) can share from a valid subscribed cards from a server(host). Normally the producers or owners of the server will subscribe for alots of providers like dstv,hitv,daarsat etc. They will now set up a server,who ever is given access to that server will watch the providers as if he is paying. To get the access to the srever you need an average speed internet connection and decoder with inernet connection(this is wan). Cardsharing can also be local using card splitter.

There are alots of decoders with cardsharing programmes already in them(plug and play) like maxfly mf 1000+,Azbox,dreambox,nanoxx,max,mann etc. While for other categories you need to subscribe for the service.

The best of these decoders are Ebox elite x and maxfly. Reason being that i ve used them and they carry multichoice africa c-band and all nilesat providers.
bros in the house i need someone with strong reliable cline servers to share with cos i av srt4669z & srt4669x , how do i ?

@ George_D, I want to understand if twin Lnb is the only solution,
What I did was splitting the signal from the lnbf with a splitter, now from the splitter, I send signal to each Lnb input of the two Decoder, then one receives Signal but the other was tryng to Established a signal though the weather was down with misty cloud, the decoder in question is Dstv DSD1131, now you made mention of using RF output, will they two subscribers be independent to change channels without inconveniencing each other
Sun-sat.
Your best option is to use dual or quad lnbf as the case may be. Looping out may pose the challenge of polarity conflict between the decoders and it may even burn your lnb if you dont set the lnbf power of one of all the slave decoders to "off". This is IMHO.

@all. I've tried the frq of NTA listed on IS 907 and 905 on lynsat but no result. is anybidy still receiving them?

George_D:

@Sun-sat,
Yes, more than one subscribers can share one dish using using either twin, quad or 8-way lnbf. All you have to do is connect each output from the lnb to the decoder of each subsriber and you are done. They can be operated seperately and you don't need a splitter unless you want to tie the decoders together using their respective RF outputs.

Connection Requirements and
Overview
Connection Requirements
splitter
LINKSYS CABLE MODEM
RJ – 45 NIC Cable
Ethernet Cable
Router(WIRELESS OR WIRED if
you intend to use more than
one pc)
DECODER(mytv, hitv, dstv,
daarsat etc)
Coaxial to RJ-45 converter or
adapter
COAXIAL CABLES
Overview
splitter
There are many types of
Satellite Decoder splitter, you
buy your favorite at the shops
where it ’s been sold What do
we use the splitter for? This
enables you to create a parallel
connection for the coaxial
cable (this is the cable that is
used to connect your decoder
to the TV and as well as the
decoder to the Dish hanged
outside).the splitter will share
the signal that comes from the
dish outside between the TV
and the Router cable modem,
which will convert the signal to
an internet signal
LINKSYS CABLE MODEM
Definition of a Cable Modem: A
cable modem is a device that
delivers high-speed Internet
connectivity via a cable
television company which
serves as the Internet service
provider (ISP). A cable modem
requires a subscription to
cable Internet service, and will
not function by simply
connecting it to a cable TV
(CATV) feed. Externally, a cable
modem resembles a DSL
modem. The coax cable that
brings in the digital CATV
signal provides a channel for
upstream and downstream
Internet service. This does not
interfere with television, as
there is plenty of "real estate"
or bandwidth space on the
coax cable to handle both TV
and Internet signals. Why
Linksys Cable Modem: The
Linksys Cable Modem does not
require you to pay any
additional separate monthly
subscription to the cable
company, you only need to
connect it with your current
subscription with your satellite
cable TV provider which will
only work with a Coaxial Cable.
RJ – 45 NIC Cable
This is a typical networking
cable which we will use to
network all the network
devices that we have listed
above such as the Router
(Cable Modem), we will use it
to make a connection from the
Router to the computer to
transmit internet.
Ethernet Cable
Ethernet cables connect
network devices such as
modems, routers, and
adapters. They transmit data
using the Ethernet protocol.
Most Ethernet cables have
RJ-45 jacks on both ends, each
with 8 pins. (They look similar
to telephone jacks, which use
4 pins or 6 pins.)
• Equipment using an Ethernet
cable is referred to as wired.
• Wireless equipment uses
radio waves in place of some
(or all) Ethernet cables. A
network device that uses both
Ethernet and wireless
connections is usually called
just wireless.
The Physical Ethernet Cables
• Use Cat 5 cables. (Cat 5 is a
measure of quality, meaning
that it supports traffic up to
100 MB / sec.) These are also
called 10/100 Base-T Cat 5
cables.
• Some Ethernet cable wires
crises-cross internally, others
are straight through, meaning
that pin 1 is wired to pin 1 on
the other end, etc. A port
(socket) for a straight through
Ethernet cable is sometimes
called an uplink port. If you
aren't sure about a cable, and
you can see the inside wires'
colors, hold the two ends of
the plugs up, so the same side
of the plug is facing you.
Router
A router is used to transmit
internet to more than 1
computer system on a
network setup, this enables
you to network your
connection to other system
(PCs). This is also known as
cable modem.
The connection runs the
incoming cable connection to
an external cable modem,
which has an Ethernet
connection to a router, which
then connects
DECODER
A decoder is a device which is
used to decode the satellite
signal receive from the satellite
dish into a video, the decoded
signal converted into video is
what we receive on our TV,
The purpose of we connecting
to the internet with a decoder
is to convert your decoder to a
Modem, a cable decoders is a
modem because it modulates
and demodulates, but it also
functions as a tuner, a
network bridge, an encryptor
etc.
To connect your PC or laptop
to a decoder to access the net,
you do not use a serial port as
with dialup modem.
COAXIAL CABLES
This connect the decoder to
the splitter and one end of the
cable goes into the TV while
the other end goes to the WAN
port of the router (Linksys
Router)
Things to take Note before
buying all the equipments
required for setup:
• I always recommend
running a router between a
cable modem and a PC because
a router not only allows more
than one PC to be connected,
but also provides a robust
hardware firewall that helps
shield your PC(s) connected to
it from internet – based
attacks.
• You can directly connect PCs
to a cable decoder using USB; I
do not recommend that option
because it precludes using a
router (cable modem)
• Some cable modems have a
built – in router, in which case
you don’t need to purchase a
separate one. If your computer
doesn ’t include an Ethernet
adapter built into the
motherboard or a separate
Ethernet card, you can install
an Ethernet card into an
available internal expansion
slot or use a USB – based
Ethernet adapter instead. I use
a USB - based Ethernet adapter
on my HITV decoder.
• The cable modem connects
to the CATV network using the
same coaxial cable connection
as your cable TV.
The steps to Connection
The steps to Connection
Step 1
Coaxial Cable cord
SplitterPort
Connect the coaxial cable from
your dish to your satellite
decoder splitter( i.e the “in” part)
and then connect one cable from
the first “out” port to your
decoder and the one from the
second port to your Linksys
modem; the cable can be
purchased from any shop where
they sell cable
decoder while one of the other
coaxial cable cords is connected
to your television to watch
satellite stations.
Step 2
Coaxial Cable cord
LINKSYS ROUTER
Connect the second Coaxial cable
cord from the splitter to WAN
port of your router (Linksys
Router)
Step 3
Coaxial Cable cord
If your cable modem does not
have an inbuilt router facility, you
will need to connect your cable
Modem to the CATV network of
your router using the same
coaxial cable connection as your
TV, but might need to convert it
Step 4
Ethernet Cable
LINKSYS ROUTER
Connect the Ethernet Cable from
the router to your computer
system, which can stand as a
client if you are using only one
computer or server if you are
networking more than one
system, make sure that your
computer has an inbuilt Ethernet
adapter on the Motherboard or a
separate Ethernet card, you can
also install an Ethernet Card into
an available internal expansion
slot or you can alternatively use a
USB – Based Ethernet Adapter
instead. In our connection we
use a USB –based Ethernet
adapter on HITV Decoder
Step 5
LINKSYS ROUTER
RJ -45 Cable
At the back of the Linksys Router
there are several ports, port 1 – 4
Stand as the LAN(Local Area
Network) Port which can be used
to connect 1 -4 CPU to the router
with an RJ -45NIC Cable, in most
cases the cables comes with the
router when you purchase it.
Connect 1 -4 CPU to the LAN Port
of the router with your RJ -45
Cables, please don ’t mistake it
with the Ethernet cable, as is only
to be used to connect the
computer which is the server to
the Router for network routing
and also note that each of the
CPU that connect to the Router
LAN Port with the help of RJ-45
must have an inbuilt Network
card install in them, while the
server should have an Ethernet
card adapter install on the board
as mentioned earlier.
Step 6
The fifth port of the Linksys
Router which stand as the WAN
Port (Wireless Access Network)
Connect the second coaxial cable
that comes from the splitter to
the WAN Port of the Router, but
note that you need a converter
which is an adapter that convert
the coaxial cable to RJ -45 cable
since the Router WAN port does
not have a direct port for a
coaxial cable
Step 7
The sixth port of the Linksys
Router which is called the
UplinkPort, the port can be
connected to a Hub or a Switch
to enable additional users or
computers within the network
range to share with the internet
of your decoder via wireless
access

CAN SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE?

I installed a two-dish setup for a friend and it suddenly lost signal.
I am currently out of town and have discussed the problem with them, doing the normal checking but the thing is that they cant figure where it went wrong.
All the physical installation are in place and it could just be that they are selecting the wrong Diseq Switch( 1,2,3 or 4 Diseq/splitter)

Can anyone in the house recommend an "installer for me" or can anyone who has know-how and wants to assist me to resolve the issue please leave a message for me here so l can link them to the address, PLEASE?
The location is in Lagos, Mainland area of Yaba.
You know how it is when women cant watch their GTV or Kids can watch their Kiddy stuff, l am in trouble!
The Decoder in use is a STRONG 4669x tuned to MyTV and JoyTV.

I am sure its not "equipment failure" since it just says "No Signal" but its shows all the Satellite feeds that is in the Decoder (which says that my LNB, Dish and Decoder are picking signals and its likely a "settings problem"wink.
I've asked them to do a blind scan and it still does not pick the channels but due to my not being physically present at the place, l cant remember exactly, the Diseq (1,2,3 or 4) that the two dishes are tied to (maybe they have selected a wrong one).

I just feel l need someone who is knowledgeable about it, to be physically there to correct things for me.

Anyone would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

In FTA anything is possible, 'cos u wanted to sell does not mean u should not reason with others.

If someone should mention on this forum 2 months ago dat dstv will get right to EPl, it’s d same na lie, we go talk…instead of trying to see if there is a % of truth in dat rumour.

Using dstv cards on other decoders that are not from dstv is not acceptable to them…so it’s possible for them to… it’s safer for dem to deactivate the cards that are not compliant…when you complain…then they advice you to go buy their decoder…

If you cannot do research and someone is hear giving back on what he got…is that a crime?

Selfish bizman…

@oga george, will signal splitter have any effect on h and v polarity of two recievers? That is using one dish on two recievers. Thanks

@williams,
A signal splitter will be of no use in overcoming V and H polarity conflict in a single way lnb. What you need is a quatro lnb combined with a multi switch or better still go for a quad lnb and feed in the recievers seperately direct from the dish.

samsjoke,
if your using the new type dstv decoder, connect the signal coming from the dish to a 2-way splitter and then connect the 2-way splitter to the dstv decoder and strong decoder.

for a strong decoder, go for the new 4669x. it costs about 16k in lagos.

Before using the card splitter, you need to make sure the original smart card is not paired with receiver.Because
once the machine is mated to the card, the machine can't be used with any other card anymore.

if it's not married , the card can work as your original smart card inside your receiver.
So that it can share 1 original card between all your receivers, each receiver can control and watch your own favourite channels in the meantime.
